Arne Slot could be set to welcome a highly-rated player to Liverpool but there’s a catch.

Luke Alfred Davies

Liverpool could be set to use a promising player as a part of a deal to tempt a Premier League forward to join the club.

Arne Slot’s side currently sit top of the Premier League and 36-team Champions League group phase heading into the second half of the campaign.

Liverpool could still win a historic quadruple having reached the fourth round of the FA Cup after a 4-0 win against Accrington Stanley at Anfield on Saturday.And they trail Tottenham 1-0 after the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final but with the second leg being at Anfield, Slot, 46, will still fancy his side’s chances.However, one thing that has not gone as planned since Slot arrived last summer is transfers. The Reds have signed just one player – Federico Chiesa – since Slot joined the club.

But now that the January transfer window is open, the Reds are free to negotiate transfers if they see fit. Of course, the potential outgoings of the soon-to-be out-of-contract Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold may be the first thing on most fans’ minds, but the Premier League leaders have been heavily linked with an in-form player.But the deal could prove complex.

According to the Daily Star, the Reds are “showing interest” in Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo with the Cherries ‘preparing’ for “bids” for the forward.Semenyo, 25, has scored six goals and registered three assists in 21 appearances for Andoni Iraola’s side this term, with his performances attracting the interest of Liverpool.The Ghanaian, whose current deal is set to run until June 2029, is thought to be valued at around £50m.

But a potential transfer could see a Liverpool youngster join the south coast side in a ‘swap deal’. The Northern Echo explains how there are “strong suggestions” that Bournemouth are interested in signing Ben Doak, who is currently on loan at Michael Carrick’s Middlesbrough.

Last week, reports suggested Liverpool were “reluctantly” willing to accept an offer of “£25-30m” for the Doak, 19, with Crystal Palace and Ipswich Town having seen bids of “around 15m” rejected by the Merseyside-based club, according toThe inclusion of the Scotland international in a potential deal would allow Liverpool to land one of their key transfer targets for a reduced fee.Liverpool owners issue ‘response’ to Elon Musk after claims he is interested in buying the Premier League club

“He would like to, yes. Obviously. Anyone would want to. So would I. My mother – his grandmother – was born in Liverpool and we have relatives in Liverpool.

He went on to claim: “We were fortunate to know quite a few of the Beatles, because they grew up with us, my family, and so we’re really attached to Liverpool.”Musk’s grandmother was called Cora Robinson, and is said to have been born and raised in the city of Liverpool before then marrying Walter Musk, a South African army sergeant who served in a military intelligence unit in Egypt during World War II.

Fenway Sports Group have owned Liverpool since October 2010, taking over from the wildly unpopular duo of George Gillett and Tom Hicks.

In 2022, FSG and Liverpool principal owner John W Henry told The Athletic in a statement that they would ‘consider new shareholders if it was in the best interests of the club’ – but did not want to sell the club outright.

And in September 2023, it was confirmed that Dynasty Equity, an American sports investment firm, had invested to acquire a minority share of between 1.9 and 3.8 per cent in Liverpool.

Salah, 32, is in fine form, having registered 21 goals and 17 assists in his 27 appearances this season.

However, his current Liverpool contract is set to expire in June 2025, and he is able to negotiate a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs now that the transfer window is open.And in recent months, the Egyptian has been fairly vocal about his situation.In November, following Liverpool’s 3-2 Premier League win against Southampton, Salah discussed his future with reporters gathered outside St Mary’s and explained he was “probably more out than in”.

He also revealed how he had not received a contract offer from the club.
